Spring Arrived a Little Early

She came with the morning mail...

as lovely as any gift of spring could be. And what's inside?

A quilting book by Vicki Bellino and

Notecards by Sheila of Starshine Through My Windows. Sheila, like so many of you, takes awesome photos. Eventually, these will be used and you may be the recipient, though for now, I'm just enjoying them. One will most likely be framed. Looking at them again, I may decide on a sunset since we don't see very many. Thank you for the gifts, Sheila. They are delightful; you brightened my day; and my world will be experiencing very springy, ten-degrees-warmer-than-usual days all this week. You really know how to send spring!

Now, I have been wondering, if you were going to create a set of notecards from those photographs used on your blog, which four would you choose? Would anyone like to play this game? We could have a Mr. Linky Party. (It would be the first one that I have ever hosted.) We could do this on the day after spring...March 21, 2012. If there's any interest, I'll get a button set up for any who'd like to have one. It sounds like fun to me; how about you?

Your party suggestion sounds like fun! I'm surprised how much I am enjoying spring now that I have given up on having winter. It does seem like we just finished raking the leaves, and the trees are rapidly becoming green. I guess there's always a thrill at renewal or newness of life!

That is a lovely spring surprise! Yay for the above normal temperatures this week! We're getting them too. I would certainly join this linky party. My big decision will be which photos to choose. Great idea! Enjoy the spring weather Vee! Hugs, Pamela

I would love to participate and am glad to hear that your surprise is inspiring you to create a Mr. Linky Party. Thanks so much again for the cookbook you sent me last summer. "Mennonite Girls Can Cook" is fabulous and I was so pleased to win your draw. Imagine my surprise when I opened the package and found that my cookbook was wrapped in a beautiful apron you'd made. One good turn deserves another. Hope your week is filled with sunshine!

I won't be able to participate, but I hope I can view. It sounds like a fun thing to do.

I think your thoughtful friend sent spring our way, too. What beautiful gift wrap she used. The cards are beautiful and you can spend hours looking through the book as you take some time to rest your back. You'll have all sorts of projects planned when you're spending time at your sewing machine again.

I try to catch up when I visit to I have several comments. Glad John is doing well and you have the right idea about the back pain. You must have a little routine to relieve that inflammation. Took me a few years to find that out. Congrats on the beautiful cards. I would join your linky party. Getter going gal.QMM
